I haven;t done any sheet metal design in NX yet, but in SolidWorks I would draw a perforated sheet then bend it. It would then represent the part as it would be if you did it for real
Mine are a tad bigger then HO scale. The toy I am playing with now is 290,000 lb, 70 feet long, 16 feet high and 4,000 hp. All that said, I am 6', 200#. I consider myself a good average size. I still have to squeeze through a few spots on the inside of these locos as I work mostly on commuter...
I'm certain it would help out, and I work for a pretty big company, so I might be able to talk them into buying a copy when I show them what it can do. It's good to know how much body you can cram into a passageway in the back of a locomotive before it's built.
I've seen that thread and downloaded their guy, but he was a parasolid, so I couldn't pose it in a squatting configuration. The SolidWorks man I had before was an assembly, so I was able to move it around by changing the mating constraints, and I could change it's size by scaling the individual...
I would like a human model that I can very in height, weight and position. I am using NX 7.5, but I don't have a license for Jack. Does anybody know of a downloadable version that I can get for free? (Free being my favorite four letter F-word) (Food is a close second).I had one that a friend...
Funny! I just got off the phone when I received your message Harold! they can all do it, but the color of the light is so warm that it appears to look like a high pressure sodium lamp, and that is what i am retying to replace. They have low color rendering and are energy hogs. LEDs have a much...
Thanks for the help. My biggest concern is that the light will not be white anymore after it passes through the filter. Is anybody out there able to do a notch band reject filter that will squelch out only the wavelengths between say 450 and 490 nm?
I am working on a medical application where I need to block wavelengths of light from 500 nm and lower. The photoinitiators in medical composites typically cure at 470 nm, so I can't have any of the blue and UV light. Most of the methacrylates (Lexan and the like) don't cut off until about 400...
You best bet is to clean the fasteners then lube them with something that is compatible with your physical environment and then lube them with something that is consistent. Most moly-D's are predictable but won't work in strong oxidizing environments. In that case use Inlox (Google them They are...
Aavid.com is a pretty good place to start. Find a heatsink of theirs from their selector guides online then design yours around them. i admit it, I've done it before! I needed a rather large heatsink that they had in their catalog, but after getting their pricing I learned that for the Quantity...
If the exhaust from a turbine is not superheated it will cavitate in the blades and beat the snot out of them. it is for that reason that most commercial power generating stations back pressure the turbine exhaust so that it is not in the quallity region on the way out. You take an efficiency...
A thermal test rig will not tell you directly how much heat it takes to maintain a set point, but you could back a good swag out empirically given the data you got from the tank. What you could do however is heat things up to steady state then tweak your input power until you reach the point you...
I don;t think you have much to worry about because air is compressible. As with and pressure vessel you should, by code, have a relief valve on it just in case. It would be safest to vent it to ambient and thereby solve the problem. If you cannot vent it then calculate the pressure in the vessel...
